Oaktown Boys Cory Pack and Dan Connolly

Announcement! The Oaktown Boys podcast is moving. We are now a part of FFSN's Oakland Athletics flagship podcast called OBP: Oakland Baseball Podcast. Please find us at Apple Podcasts for now as we work to expand the streaming services that host our new channel.

Spring has sprung and another A's baseball season is upon us! Dan and Cory share exciting news about joining FFSN, discuss the many intriguing performances from Spring Training, and dive deep into what the opening day roster will look like. Despite what many pundits around the league might say, there are glimmers of hope for A's fans this year.

The A's wrap up the season with a sweep of Slegna. The weekend was an eventful one with the retiring of Kurt Suzuki and Stephen Vogt, and possibly the last game as an Athletic for Chad Pinder. Vogt made it a memorable day with one last magical homerun.

With the season winding down, Cory and Dan lament over what went wrong throughout the year. However they manage to find some bright spots too. The last question remains, will they lose 100 games? Find out next time on Oaktown Boys!

Cory and Dan give Stephen Vogt his dues, in light of another big moment and what could be his last month as an Oakland Athletic "ballplayer". Then they discuss a nearly two decades of A's trade history, highlighting some wins and some near misses. A look ahead to the future includes a predicted pitching staff and some possible additions to make from the free agent market.

Dan and Cory recap the highlights of July's hot streak followed by the regression to the mean of more losing in August. Longtime favorites, Stephen Piscotty, Jed Lowrie, and Elvis Andrus have been let go. In their place Shea Langeliers, JP Sears, Nick Allen, Cal Stevenson, and other rookies look to step up for the future of the Athletics. The boys finish the pod by discussing what to watch for in the final month of the season.
